It's the first time I am playing with it and I really love this app. Because it is an app it can be must faster to switch to different sections of the site. I really like it. However, I takes some time to get used to.

Would it be possible to have the floating tool window follow the main window? That would be great. Or did someone already asked this?

Now c'mon, tell the truth.

You guys were holding back a bit on beta 1. This beta 2 has way too many improvements to have been done in a couple of days.

I'm just yanking you chains.

Great work guys, it really is vastly improved.

Works really fast. Any chance of getting thumbnail views like the web site?

I'd like to see the Popular, New and Updated skins panel integrated into the suite so it will have everything in one to fully maximize, Maybe a panel that can be toggled to view it or hide it.

Oh, and while you're adding new features, could you put a button in there, that when pressed, will dispense $20 dollar bills out of my CDRom drive.

Karlie, you can access the top/updated/newest from within the main program by click Icons & Cursors, and they are listed in the drop down list.

What is the proper update procedure,uninstall B1 then install B2 or install B2 over the top of B1?

Thanks,
David.

Simply overwritting the existing install should be fine.

I don't know about anyone else but WB loads much faster through skin browser than through the display panel.

Great stuff

Hi..

I have that version and can't seem to download loggonscreens and apply, it reads I don't have it installed but I do.

Just a moment ago I tried downloading a theme, I was told I didn't have DesktopX installed would I like to download it, I tried a few times but keep getting error 2 whatever that is.
I don't get a message when I try to download again loggon studio,
it just hangs me up, even if I cancel the download.

I have to use Ctrl-Alt-Del to get out.

Brice - I have that same problem with logon as well. What I do is to download the skin and then open logonstudio to apply it.

WB, IP and walls install fine. Beatnik and logon seem to require this manual step.

What I meant by thumbnail views was 10 per page as per the website. Kinda frustrating looking at one at a time.
